This paper proposes a percentage current differential relaying algorithm for bus protection using an advanced compensating algorithm of the secondary current of current transformers (CTs). The compensating algorithm estimates the core flux at the start of the first saturation based on the value of the second-difference of the secondary current. Then, it calculates the core flux and compensates distorted currents using the magnetization curve. The algorithm Is unaffected by a remanent flux. The simulation results indicate that the proposed algorithm can discriminate internal faults from external faults when the CT saturates. This paper concludes by implementing the algorithm into a TMS320C6701 digital signal processor. The results of hardware implementation are also satisfactory. The proposed algorithm can improve not only stability of the relay in the case of an external fault but sensitivity of the relay in the case of an internal fault.

This paper presents leakage magnetic field and leakage inductance calculations in current transformer by means of 3-D Integral methods. From the distribution diagram of leakage magnetic flux to be analyzed using program called TRACAL 3, ti confirms a parallel to the winding axis direction of the leakage flux lines in the air gap between the windings. The leakage inductances L$\sub$r1/ and L$\sub$r2/ of the primary and secondary winding were calculated, their values are 4.23 MH and 0.49 mH, respectively. They are also similar to the measured values of he leakage inductances of the experimental verification, 4.06 mH and 0.47 mH.

Current transformer (CT) saturation may cause a variety of protective relays to malfunction. The conventional CT is designed that it can carry up to 20 times the rated current. However, the possibility of CT saturation still remains, because the fault current may have substantial amounts of ac and/or de components. This paper presents a iron-cored CT design method to prevent CT saturation. The proposed method employs the overdimensioning factor $(K_{ta})$ considering dc components contained as well as symmetrical ac components in the fault current.

The conventional technique to deal with CT saturation is overdimensioning of the core so that CTs can carry up to 20 times the rated current without exceeding 10% ratio correction. However, this not only reduces the sensitivity of relays, but also increases the CT core size in proportion to the expected maximum fault current to avoid CT saturation. This paper presents a technique of estimating the secondary current corresponding to the CT ratio which can reduce the required CT core cross section significantly.

This paper describes a percentage current differential relaying algorithm for bus protection blocked by a CT saturation detection algorithm. The detection algorithm blocks the output of a current differential relay only if a differential current is caused by CT saturation in the case of an external fault. Moreover, if a current differential relay operates faster than the detection algorithm, the blocking signal is not ignited. On the other hand. if the detection algorithm operates faster than a current differential relay, the output of the relay is blocked. The results of the simulation show that the proposed algorithm can discriminate internal faults from external faults ever when a CT is saturated in both cases. This paper concludes by implementing the algorithm into the TMS320C6701 digital signal processor. The results of hardware implementation are also satisfactory The algorithm can not only increase the sensitivity of the current differential relay but Improve the stability of the relay for an external faults.

In the conventional method, two CTs have been used to share the load current equally with two converters. A new simle method to find out the current difference between two converters using only one CT as a ZCT is suggested. Two experimental prototype converters were designed and implemented for the evaluation of the load current sharing. The results of experiment show that the newly proposed ZCT method using only one CT could make a good load current sharing than the conventional method required two CT when operating two converters in parallel.

지금까지 변전소나 개폐소에서 전류, 전압을 계측하는 수단으로서 주로 철심과 권선으로 구성되어진 변류기(CT), 계기용 변압기(PT, PD)가 사용되어져 왔다. 최근, 2차측의 계측기나 보호 Relay의 Digital화가 진전되어 또한 이것을 Digital Network으로 총합한 Intelligent 변전소의 구축이 검토되어지고 있으며, Digital Network에 대응한 변성기 관련규격인 IEC 60044가 근래 제정되어짐에 따라 이에 적합한 전자식 변성기가 요구되어지고 있다. 상기와 같은 요구로 인해 당사에서는 IEC 60044를 기반으로 한 전자식변성기 Layout을 구성하였으며, CT는 검출부에 Rogowski Coil을 적용하며 그 후단에 적분기를 설치하였으며, VD는 검출부에 중간 전극을 이용해서 분압하는 방식인 Capacitive Voltage Divider를 사용하고 증폭기를 삽입하여, 각각 요구되는 전압 신호를 얻었다. 이러한 신형 CT/VD의 적용으로 종래의 CT/PT가 차지하는 공간이 필요없게 되어 컴팩트한 GIS의 구조가 가능하게 되어 있다.

In this paper, we studied a accuracy for CT using elastic epoxy. According to industry development, the quality where also the electric material is various is demanded. Insulation material is widely used because epoxy is superior to electrical and mechanical property. Until now, the possibility where the crack will occur is high because epoxy used to electrical products had high hardness. If thermal expansion is different of two material, contraction of epoxy heavily transformed turns ratio of CT. Elastic epoxy absorbed in expansion and contraction of substance material by temperature. So we could design more exacted CT. We had elastic test of elastic epoxy and made CT using elastic epoxy. At the result, We obtained turns ratio of within 4% superior to existing CT.

22.9KV-Y 배전선로의 특고압 수전설비에 계량장치로 부설되어 운영중인 계기용변성기 M.O.F(Metering Out Fit)는 계기용변압기와 계기용변류기를 하나의 상자 속에 수납한 것으로 전력량계와 조합시켜서 전력측정의 변성장치로 사용되고 있다. 계량장치로 사용되고 있는 계기용변성기는 고객과 공정거래확립을 위하여 상시 정해진 비오차 특성을 만족하여야 한다. 그러나 고객구내 수전설비에서 파급고장이 발생시 과전류로 인하여 계기용변성기의 권선에 큰 충격이 가해져 비오차 특성에 문제점이 발생하나, 이 비오차를 측정할 때는 현재 정전상태에서 측정이 가능하여 현실적으로 측정을 할 수 없다. 이에 전기를 사용하는 활선상태에서도 비오차 측정을 할 수 있는 개발품에 대하여 고찰하고자 한다.
